Work Calendars

Work calendars allow you to setup Default Colors, Drive-Time settings, Schedule Templates and much more so that you can schedule new jobs in just a few clicks.

There are two types of Work Calendars:

Recurring	Non-Recurring
Used for Visit type work, involving multiple visits that you will continuously visit on a recurring basis (eg. mowing, pruning, yard cleanup, etc) and for unscheduled routes.	Used for Install/Construction type work, involving one visit (which may span across days or weeks) where a Job is started and completed within a specific time-frame (eg. patio install, driveway, etc). For more information on non-recurring calendars, see below.

Create a 'Recurring' Calendar

Navigate to Settings > Scheduling > Work Calendars
Click + New on the top-right corner
On the Add Work Calendar screen, give it a Calendar Name and ensure you have selected Recurring Calendar Type
On the Calendar Info section, you will see the following options for set-up, as well a brief description of what each setting means by clicking on the ? icon. Enter your settings here for your Work Calendar.
Click Save on the bottom-right corner once you have entered all of your values.

Create a 'Non-Recurring' Work Calendar

Non-Recurring Calendars are used for Install/Construction type work, involving one visit (which may span across days or weeks) where a Job is started and completed within a specific time-frame (eg. patio install, driveway, etc.)

Setup Schedule Crews

Schedule Crews are used to designate which employees to be assigned for work on the Calendar. It schedules work for Crews, rather than specific employees, so that if there are no-shows or last minute changes to the workload, your schedule isn’t tied to any one specific foreman.

Create & Setup your Crews for Scheduling

Navigate to Settings > Scheduling > Schedule Crews
Click on + Add New located on the top-right corner
Give the Crew a Name, indicate the amount of staff in the crew, assign a Default Foreman and a color for the crew.
⚠️ The Crew Size can be changed when actually scheduling a Job. This is just a default that appears.
Click Save
Repeat the same process for every Crew you wish to setup.
💡Do not use the color White or you will not be able to see scheduled items on your calendar!

Select the Year from the dropdown
Click the + Add New button
Click the calendar icon under Holiday Date and select the day from the calendar
